Which groups, networks, neighbourhood villages, or projects do you think you might be interested in getting involved with? And what knowledge, skills, resources or other assets can you bring to the mix? (Don't be bashful!): Am going travelling, but I have had chickens since 2007, grew up on a farm, and have a fairly serious vegetable garden. Good food background. Keen cyclist.

What would you like to see improved in Vancouver or in your community regarding sustainability or resiliency? Do you have an idea for a new Transition project or activity?: Will be out of the country for 7 months so currently not able to initiate anything.
